Hi

In this forum has been lots of discussion about what is a correct space saver tires for 70-71 E-bodies, but so far I have not found any information about how to decode the space saver mfg date.

My friend has two F78-14 BF Goodrich space saver tires without rim.

The other is a V-1 tire and has a code of BAL7 CU1402. On the tire tread is a painted code L7 CU 9 29 34

The other is a non V-1 tire having code BFL7 CU1 337


How to decode these markings and which one might be a closer match for a '70 Challenger vert with A26 SPD?
